Straight-up bets, box pool numbers, "you've gotta streak the quad if the Giants win"-style prop bets...what's on the line for you?

My wife made it to the final round of the pool that I run (http://www.sirblah.com/1on1pool/index.htm) -- a Pats win gets her $200, and a Giants win nets her $700.

We've also got a couple of boxes -- I have G4/P7 (not a bad one at all) and G5/P0, while my wife has G8/P4 and G6/P3 -- $100 or $150 per quarter.

What've you got?

Nothing. I only bet on a sure thing - like the powerball.

I sometimes will get in a pool, but this year none were forthcoming.

Packer fan routing for the Giants!!

Just wagering my Shrimp Jambalaya against friend's Short Ribs

Somehow I think we'll both end up winning :p

My sense of self-worth. For the next week or so, at least.

I didn't bet any football this season, actually, which would surprise people who know me. (And, naturally, my spreadsheet picked winners at a 60% clip. Would've made a killing. . .)

In Homer Simpson's case, it was his daughter. Now there's a real gambler for you...
